| dc.description | The programme was piloted in Mozambique in 2003-2004 and JFFLSchools have been implemented since then in: Cameroon, Ghana, Gaza & West Bank, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Nepal, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe (foreseen next: Burundi, Congo and Rwanda). Programme evaluations have been undertaken in various countries: Mozambique, Kenya, Uganda and Gaza & West Bank. The JFFLS have been included as one of the main activities in the UNJPs for ‘’youth employment and migratio n’’ in Mozambique and Sudan, as well as in the UNJP for Peace in Nepal. The Junior Farmer Field and Life School approach has a unique learning methodology and curriculum, which combine both agricultural and life skills. The JFFLS approach is an adaptation of successful practices for developing knowledge and life skills among farmers in difficult circumstances such as Farmer Field Schools and Farmer Life Schools, combined with creative and expressive activities rooted in local culture. An innovative aspect of the JFFLS is the way youth are encouraged to develop as people; a school timetable includes cultural activities such as singing, dancing, and theatre. This allows the youth to develop confidence while keeping local cultural traditions alive. | |
